Did traditionalists spread it about in order to provoke an outcry and prevent it from coming to be? It&#8217;s been known to happen before.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s hard to imagine Pope Francis making such a shocking move. But\u00a0then again, not so long ago it was hard to imagine that the new pope would celebrate Holy Thursday in\u00a0 a prison, as he had done down in Argentina. And when it was announced that he would, it was hard to imagine that he would wash the feet of females, including non-Christians. And he did. So&#8230; who knows?<\/p>\n<p>Francis is his own man and seems not to be afraid of making his own decisions. He hasn&#8217;t been shy about tossing overboard the monarchical trappings of vesture and ceremonial that Benedict cultivated. But as I say, it&#8217;s hard to imagine Francis appointing Marini-1 to such a delicate position.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe Piero could become archpriest of the basilica, a cardinalatial position.
